Head and Neck Cancer Treatment in India

Treatment for head and neck cancer generally includes a combination of therapies tailored to the stage and type of cancer. The treatment options include:

• 
  Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy uses anti-cancer drugs to kill cancer cells. These drugs are usually injected into veins and travel through the bloodstream to target the cancer cells. Chemotherapy is often combined with radiation therapy for better effectiveness, as radiation alone may be less effective for head and neck cancers.
• 
  Surgery: Surgeons may remove cancerous tissues along with some healthy tissues to ensure the cancer is fully excised. For early-stage cancers, lasers may be used to treat tumors. If the cancer has spread to the neck's lymph nodes, these may also be removed surgically. Depending on the location and extent of the surgery, there may be changes to a patient's ability to speak, chew, or swallow.
• 
  Radiation Therapy: Radiation therapy is commonly used for head and neck cancer patients, either alone or in combination with chemotherapy. This treatment uses high-energy X-rays to destroy cancer cells in the affected areas.
